Have you had the fuel pump replaced on this car? I noticed at about 3:30 when you gave it full throttle the trans shifted out of 45, just like it's supposed to. Mine shifts too early, at 38, and I speculate a weak fuel pump on my 89 Cutlass Ciera, updated Iron Duke, same 125C trans. But how does your fuel pump sound anyway when you key the ignition on?
@stillstabbin1 I replaced the fuel pump because the gas was dried up in the tank when I got it. Really it doesn't make much sound at all, unless you listen under the rear of the car.
@Pre5tig3 I have toyed with that idea, but now I don't think that will happen. I traded for the car under the impression it had a title but the previous owner has yet to come through with that.
You actualy got that car running???? If im not mistakin thats the same one that the engine was up to its valve cover in leaves and other stuff right???
Good to see another 'ol 2.5 back on the road! I recently got my '85 Skylark with the Iron Duke back from a friend who was using it, so I'll have to make some new videos of it too...
Did you ever get the title for this one David? What was its fate?

@turbobuick88 Yes that's the one! It was one hell of a rodent's nest!
If I could get the title it would be a great driver for someone. There was some misinformation given when I traded for it.
